While on a walk today we spotted this Egret out in the marsh. The distance was really too great for me to capture detailed photos, but I wanted to share these. I noticed it was trying to eat something! If you click on the photos you might get an idea of what she caught.
Many miles of bike trails in the park. Not sure I would want to walk these trails. Last year we saw a four foot Diamondback snakeBird Tree My Scrub Jay, from yesterday, was sitting at the very top!Jonathan has many marsh areas.
Hobe Sound is where we will be, Sunshine, birds and manatees we hope to see.
Long walks in the woods, Always bring joyful moods.
Strolls in the sand along the sea, Fills our hearts with pure glee.
We can hear the mighty roar, Of pounding waves against the shore.
A step outside at night, Offers mythical characters in plain sight.
A river in the sky with stars galore, Reach up and touch Orion’s Sword.
Such a beautiful locality, Cool breezes from ocean air offering vitality.
For awhile this is where we will be, My pack and me.

Even with cloudy skies, rain and cool temperatures we have enjoyed our first full week in Hobe Sound. The boat ride was taken on Thursday in the Intra-Coastal Waterway between Hobe Sound and Jupiter, Florida.
May you always be surrounded with the joy of nature!
